Threats: The limited and discontinuous range of this sub-species in the Southern Appalachians makes it vulnerable to a number of natural and human-related impacts
What is being done-  Less trees being cut down to help provide habitats.]]> 2019-08-01 01:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/eli11172002/23ph4cdmo33f/wish/372882078 eli11172002 https://padlet.com/eli11172002/23ph4cdmo33f/wish/372896775 Found in:eastern North Carolina's Albemarle Peninsula.
Threats:loss of habitat
Whats being done- preserving habitats and prevention of hunting them

Stable, silt-free stream bottoms appear to be critical to the species. Typically stable areas occur where the stream banks are well-vegetated with trees and shrubs. ( Union County)
Threats: Poor water quality and habitat conditions have led to the decline and loss of populations of the Carolina heelsplitter and threaten the remaining populations
Whats being done: Water is trying to be maintained clean for safer environment ]]> 2019-08-01 03:27:34 UTC https://padlet.com/eli11172002/23ph4cdmo33f/wish/372898437 eli11172002 https://padlet.com/eli11172002/23ph4cdmo33f/wish/372898841 Found in: Schweinitz’s sunflower occurs in full to partial sun and is found in areas with poor soils, such as thin clay's that vary from wet to dry.
Threats: Habitat destruction, fire suppression, alteration of native habitat, roadside and utility right of way maintenance, industrial development, mining, encroachment by exotic species, and highway construction and improvement have all contributed to the decline of Schweinitz’s sunflower.
Whats being done- They are planted in areas where they can't be destroyed]]> 2019-08-01 03:32:07 UTC https://padlet.com/eli11172002/23ph4cdmo33f/wish/372898841
